A radiation hybrid framework map of bovine chromosome 13.
In this paper we present a 5000-rad radiation hybrid framework map of bovine chromosome 13 (BTA13) containing 13 loci, including five conserved genes and eight polymorphic microsatellites. All framework markers are ordered with odds greater than 1000:1. Furthermore, we present a comprehensive map of BTA13 integrating 11 genes and 16 microsatellites. The proposed order is in general agreement with the recently published medium-density linkage maps. A model of five blocks of genes with conserved order between human, mouse and cattle is presented.
